Kuala Lumpur, September 14 — Authorities were alerted to a suspicious plastic box containing only toy building blocks after a woman reported finding it unattended in Bandar Baru Sri Petaling around noon. The Kuala Lumpur police chief disclosed that high radiation levels initially prompted the deployment of bomb disposal and chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and explosive units.
Representatives from the Malaysian Nuclear Agency were present at the scene. A Recoilless Disruptor device was used to safely destroy the object, confirming that it contained several boxes of colorful building blocks. Further checks confirmed no residual radioactivity in the area. The incident is being treated as criminal intimidation under Section 506 of the Penal Code, and the public is urged not to spread misinformation that could cause unrest.
Anyone with information is encouraged to contact the Kuala Lumpur police hotline or local police stations.
